I got these because of the low price and the generally-positive reviews on line. They fit nicely in the ear. The sound quality range is more limited than the buds from Apple you get with their phone, but the basses are actually deeper. The cable looks and feels very standard-issue which means I'm completely sure it will wear out, or its connections to the jack or phones will wear out, much earlier than the Apple buds' cord does. Cable is actually 6-12 inches too long, for my taste. Microphone works fine as does its on/off switch, but volume control is not possible on an iPhone, only on Android devices (by downloading an app! Not exactly what I was led to believe).

These are inexpensive earphones with an integrated microphone. It provides decent sound quality and is compatible with an iPhone. The microphone gives a good talk response to your listener and it has a single button control to answer/hangup call or pause music. The buds come with 3 sets of ear canal silicone buds for fit that is very good and comfortable with a secure feeling.

Sound quality is above average
Fit is nice and has multiple size buds
Mic is perfect for talking
I use this mic on my PlayStation 4. It plugs right into the controller and does a fantastic job of picking up my voice without me having to talk loud. I would recommend this to gamers looking to have full surround sound but not wanting the bulky and expensive headset. It's easy enough to pop one out for a bit after having it in for a few hours so comfort is good.

Been using these for a couple months now on a daily basis and they're perfect for my every day use. I use them to talk on my Android phone as well as listen to music on my work computer. Sound quality is great given the price range and they fit snugly in your ears to do a decent job of outside noise cancellation. Mainly I stuff them in my pockets and in my pack in and out every day for a couple months now and they haven't shown any signs of wear and tear and the sound is still solid. 10/10 would purchase another cheap pair.

Bought these to have some inexpensive headphones to wear while walking.... I leave them in the car so they have endured temperature extremes, knots and basic abuse. Still work great. I like the silicon earbuds, they stay in place during the toughest of workouts.
Music sounds great!

These headphones are pretty good in terms of in ear head sets. They are comfortable, don't fall out, have decent sound quality. The only weird thing is when I have them plugged into my phone Siri will randomly initialize and start asking me questions mid workout.

I've used both the MDREX15LP and these, MDREX15AP
The difference between the 2 is that these come with a microphone while the MDREX15LP don't. So you can use these also as a hands-free device for a smartphone. The MDREX15LP do not have that functionality. They are merely headphones.
Having said that, the MDREX15LP have a much better sound quality than these; although they both seem to belong to the same family. These also last a lot less. I've used both over the years, and I ran through these more frequently than the MDREX15LP; sometimes changing them once in 3 months
Overall, I would only recommend these if you plan to use them as a phone handsfree device. They are cheap, the sound quality is better than most hands free devices available in the same price range and you can still get a reasonable sound quality when listening to music.
However, for pure music listening and considering the sound quality, I would recommend the MDREX15LP. The microphone included in these is not worth the sacrifice in sound quality according to me.
I carry 2; one for listening to music and the other for a handsfree device. They are inexpensive enough to allow me to do that.

I owned a previous version of these earphones that lasted me many years. This version are a great update. Sound quality is great with deep enough bass and clear highs. Earphones have a built in Microphone for talking and a multi-use button for answering/ending calls and Play/Pause/Forward/Reverse music functionality with iPhones. Only negative is the missing volume buttons, but those are found in the higher priced version. Overall great earphones for the price.

Love these headphones! Really great quality, I used these to replace my apple headphones for my iPhone when they finally gave out. Great audio for listening to music, and the microphone is really good when I need to take a call while I'm out and about and don't have the luxury of holding my phone up to my ear. Great quality and an even better price. Very satisfied!

Speaking of quality sound....well, you don't speak of quality sound when it comes to earbuds of ANY kind. In this arena good is the enemy of great and so none of these will ever be great. But, for the close out price (or even the regular price) they have the softest rubber inserts going and they're not shaped like bullets, skulls or hello kitty. They sound absolutely very good and I liked them enough to buy them 3 times over the past 18 months. They're my goto buds

These ear buds fit nicely, especially for those of us that cannot use the larger disc type ear buds. They are comfortable to wear and the design allows for insertion into the ear to help lessen background noise. For the price you can't beat these.

I have a tendency to lose my earphones or put them through the wash, so I stick to purchasing cheap earphones for listening to music. This pair of Sony earphones provide fairly good sound for a low cost and do provide a bit of support at the low end of the frequency spectrum instead of being very flat like some cheap earphones. These are my budget pick for earphones.
